[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the hay drying rack includes a frame, which includes a plurality of A-frame support rods;

[0037] Each herringbone support rod includes a first support rod 1 and a second support rod 2. The upper ends of the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 are connected by a rotating structure 3. The rotating structure 3 is used to adjust the angle between the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2, thereby adjusting the height and width of the entire drying rack. The lower ends of the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 are far apart from each other.

[0038] The lower ends of the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 are both provided with ground-inserting rods 4. Multiple ground-inserting rods 4 are used to insert into the ground to fix the entire drying rack. In addition, multiple barbed structures can be provided on the ground-inserting rods 4 to further enhance the stability of the ground-inserting rods, thereby improving the stability of the entire drying rack.

[0039] Multiple first connecting rods 5 are provided between any two adjacent first support rods 1. The multiple first connecting rods 5 are distributed along the length direction of the first support rod 1. Both ends of each first connecting rod 5 are set on the two adjacent first support rods 1 through a detachable structure. Multiple first support rods 1 can be assembled into a whole through multiple first connecting rods 5 and detachable structure. Due to the detachable design, it is convenient to assemble during use and disassemble and transport after use.

[0040] Multiple second connecting rods 6 are provided between any two adjacent second support rods 2. The multiple second connecting rods 6 are distributed along the length of the second support rod 2. The two ends of each second connecting rod 6 are set on the two adjacent second support rods 2 through a detachable structure. Multiple second support rods 2 can be assembled into a whole through multiple second connecting rods 6 and detachable structure. Due to the detachable design, it is convenient to assemble during use and disassemble and transport after use. When using, the appropriate number of herringbone support rods can be selected according to the amount of forage to be dried. Multiple first support rods 1 are connected by multiple first connecting rods 5, and multiple second support rods 2 are connected by multiple second connecting rods 6. Since the upper ends of the first support rods 1 and the upper ends of the second support rods 2 are connected by a rotating structure 3, the required size of the forage drying rack can be assembled to obtain a whole forage drying rack of appropriate size.

[0041] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, in order to further improve the stability of the forage on the drying rack, multiple first connecting rods 5 are provided with multiple first hanging rods 7 for hooking the forage. Each first hanging rod 7 is connected to the corresponding first connecting rod 5 by a thread and the two are perpendicular to each other. That is, the first connecting rod 5 is provided with multiple threaded through holes, and the side wall of each first hanging rod 7 is provided with an external thread that matches the internal thread of the threaded through hole. Each first hanging rod 7 is located in the corresponding threaded through hole. The length of the first hanging rod 7 located outside the first connecting rod 5 can be adjusted according to the thickness of the forage being dried. The adhesion of the forage is improved by multiple first hanging rods 7, and the forage is prevented from falling off due to factors such as strong winds.

[0042] Each of the second connecting rods 6 is provided with a plurality of second hanging rods 8 for hooking and hanging fodder. Each second hanging rod 8 is connected to the corresponding second connecting rod 6 by a thread and the two are perpendicular to each other. That is, the second connecting rod 6 is provided with a plurality of threaded through holes. Each second hanging rod 8 is provided with an external thread on its side wall that matches the internal thread of the threaded through hole. Each second hanging rod 8 is located in the corresponding threaded through hole. The length of the second hanging rod 8 located outside the second connecting rod 6 can be adjusted according to the thickness of the fodder being dried. The multiple second hanging rods 8 improve the adhesion of the fodder and prevent it from falling off due to factors such as strong winds.

[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, in order to meet the needs of different heights of the drying rack, the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 have the same structure and both include multiple splicing rods 16.

[0044] Multiple splicing rods 16 are connected from bottom to top via connectors 14. The ground insertion rod 4 is located at the lower end of the splicing rod 16. The connector 14 is generally a rectangular square tube connector 14, which is a section of square tube. Both ends of the square tube extend into the interior of two splicing rods 16 respectively, and then they are fixed with screws. In addition, for easy positioning, a positioning piece 15 is provided in the middle of the square tube to prevent the rectangular square tube connector 14 from being inserted too far at one end and too short at the other end.

[0045] The upper ends of the two corresponding splicing rods 16 at the top are connected by the rotating structure 3. According to the actual needs, select an appropriate number of splicing rods 16, and adjust the angle between the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2 in conjunction with the rotating structure 3, so as to further realize the adjustment of the height and width of the drying rack, thereby meeting the needs of different heights and widths of the drying rack.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, the rotating structure 3 includes a first square cap 301 and a second square cap 302;

[0047] The first square cap 301 and the second square cap 302 are connected by a hinge structure;

[0048] The first square cap 301 is detachably mounted on the upper end of the first support rod 1, and the second square cap 302 is detachably mounted on the upper end of the second support rod 2. Detachability is generally achieved by screws or bolts, but other connection methods can also be used to achieve both fixation and detachment. The upper end of the first support rod 1 and the corresponding upper end of the second support rod 2 can be connected through the first square cap 301, the second square cap 302, and the hinge structure to achieve rotational adjustment.

[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown in this embodiment, in order to reduce the swaying amplitude of the drying rack during strong winds and prevent it from collapsing, multiple anti-sway structures 9 are provided on the rack along its length. That is, the multiple anti-sway structures 9 are located between the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 2. The multiple anti-sway structures 9 are also selected according to the frequency and wind speed of local strong winds, and there is no limit to the number here.

[0050] Each anti-sway structure 9 includes a connecting ring 901, and a first rope 902 is provided above the connecting ring 901. The upper end of the first rope 902 is fixedly provided at the connection between the upper end of the first support rod 1 and the upper end of the second support rod 2.

[0051] A second rope 903 is provided below the connecting ring 901, and a second connecting rope is provided below the second rope 903. A counterweight 904 is provided at the lower end of the second connecting rope. The counterweight 904 can be made by filling existing fertilizer bags with sand or soil to achieve the purpose of counterweighting, which can both achieve the purpose of counterweighting and reduce costs by using local materials. The anti-sway structure 9 is used to control the swaying amplitude of the drying rack in the same way as the damper in a building. In addition, the counterweight 904 can increase the overall weight of the drying rack, further improving the overall stability of the drying rack.

[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, the detachable structure includes a first rectangular sleeve 10, which is sleeved on the first support rod 1 or the second support rod 2.

[0053] The first rectangular sleeve 10 is provided with a first tightening bolt 11;

[0054] Two second rectangular sleeves 12 are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear side walls of the first rectangular sleeve 10. The second rectangular sleeves 12 are adapted to the ends of the first connecting rod 5 or the second connecting rod 6.

[0055] The end of the first connecting rod 5 or the second connecting rod 6 is located inside the corresponding second rectangular sleeve 12. A second tightening bolt 13 is provided on the side wall of the second rectangular sleeve 12. The first connecting rod 5 or the second connecting rod 6 can be assembled and disassembled through the rectangular sleeve and the corresponding tightening bolt. In addition, the distance between the two first connecting rods 5 or the two second connecting rods 6 connected vertically can be adjusted through the first rectangular sleeve 10 and the corresponding first tightening bolt 11. The distance can be adjusted according to the size of different types of forage, and is not limited to a single type of forage. This avoids the inconvenience of drying forage caused by excessively large or small vertical width.

[0056] In this embodiment, since the hay drying takes place outdoors in an open area where it will be exposed to wind and rain, in order to extend the service life of the entire drying rack, the first support rod 1, the second support rod 2, the first connecting rod 5, and the second connecting rod 6 are all hollow structures made of high-strength aluminum alloy or corrosion-resistant stainless steel. Using high-strength aluminum alloy or corrosion-resistant stainless steel can effectively extend the service life of the entire drying rack. Compared with traditional wooden frames, it is not easy to rot, can be reused, and is more environmentally friendly and saves wood resources. In addition, the hollow structure can reduce the weight during assembly or transportation, making it easier to assemble or transport.

[0057] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and do not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this application's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this application.
